Parking & Transportation

Parking on Campus

Parking spots are available in seven campus locations for a fee. Students must complete a student vehicle parking permit application and pay the full amount prior to being considered for available parking permits. An early registration period has been established to allow returning students to request vehicle parking by class seniority on a first come, first served basis. After the designated early registration period ends all parking is awarded on a first come, first served basis with no deference to class seniority.

Yearly parking registration fees range from $150 to $400. Parking permit applications and fees are accepted online through the myRipon portal.

Ground Transportation in Ripon

Historic downtown Ripon is within a very short walking distance from the main campus, featuring an array of restaurants, coffee shops and a drug/general store.

Ripon Taxi offers one-way fares in the city of Ripon for $2.00. Reservations can be made at 920-748-5599.

Campus Fleet

Ripon College maintains a fleet of hybrid and flex-fuel vehicles that may be reserved by official student organizations. In order to use a College-owned vehicle, a student must first become an approved driver. This process requires prior approval from a program advisor and the student must fill out all of the appropriate forms through the Office of Finance.
